The 2026 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 is the ultimate off-road performer in the lineup. It features a 3-inch factory-installed lift, advanced suspension with Multimatic DSSV dampers for superior handling, and five selectable drive modes-including an exclusive Baja mode-for tailored performance in any condition. The aggressive 33-inch mud-terrain tires and imposing stance are built for serious terrain.

If you want lighter off-road capability with a focus on rugged utility, the **Trail Boss** is excellent: it offers a 2-inch lift, 2-speed transfer case, four drive modes, and 32-inch all-terrain tires. Great for adventure without maximum extremes.

The **Z71** adds a sportier aesthetic with the same four drive modes and 32-inch all-terrain tires, bridging style and versatility.

For thrill-seekers who demand unmatched capability, the ZR2 is unbeatable. Call (715) 833-0444 to compare and find your perfect match at Markquart Motors.
